FACT - Children love play doh. So can you imagine my children's delight when we received a parcel in the post from play doh?I don't think I need any more words to tell you about our play doh fun - I'll let their faces tell you how much fun they had: You can't beat Play Doh for keeping the kids quiet can you? After my previous experiences of Play Doh, I put a black plastic sack under the kids chairs to catch all those little bits that my two manage to get everywhere and then trample through the house which meant that they could play happily without me howvering over them, … [Read more...]
The Gallery – Motherhood
This weeks theme for The Gallery is Motherhood - my favourite prompt so far. I was going to tell you about how much I love being a mum or about how I am filled with love everytime I look at my babies or I could have even told you about how proud I am of them both.... But instead, I'll just let my pictures tell you how much I love being a mum. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone elses entries for this week. If you've never entered before pop over to Tara's blog and find out all about the Gallery. … [Read more...]
Disaster Strikes….
What a day! My peaceful lazy morning was rudely interrupted by Mr Frugal noticing that the freezer decided that today was the day it needed to defrost itself. I personally think it was a little bit jealous of all the attention it's Smeg counterpart has been getting latelyand thought it would get a bit of attention of it's own.It must have had it's little meltdown overnight because everything in there was completely defrosted so I have now had to spend the rest of the day cooking up a storm trying to use everything that I could.I made chicken and ham pie and a small corned beef and … [Read more...]
National Peanut Butter Cookie Day….
I bet you didn't know that today is National Peanut Butter Cookie Day (well it is in the US anyway). In honour of this very special, celebrated day I thought that not only would I share a super duper easy recipe for Peanut Butter Cookies, I'll also share with you some very interesting facts about Peanuts and peanut butter cookies. American eat about 700 million pounds of peanut butter each year. People who have a phobia of peanut butter sticking to the roof of their mouth have 'arachibutyrophobia'. It takes about 550 peanuts to make a 12 ounce jar of creamy peanut butter.Ok, so I … [Read more...]

My Little Girl….
Aaagh I really can't believe what Miss Frugal has just said to me. We just popped to the shop and she announced that she didn't want any sweets as she was on a diet! She's 7!!!!! I was a bit shocked to say the least so we came and dropped the shopping off and went for a nice walk - just the two of us. We had a good talk and it turns out that she doesn't think that she's fat or that she needs to lose weight, she's just learning a lot about healthy eating at school and she wants to eat more healthily at home. Don't get me wrong, we do eat quite healthily (well, the kids do anyway) and we … [Read more...]
